Final Presentation

1. Adventures in
Wikis, Blogs and Web
Publishing
By Edward Schaaf

2. My First Wiki!
Welcome to BHMS Co-teaching and the Inclusion
Classroom
This Wiki was designed to:
•Provide a central knowledge base
•Develop a forum of discussion
•Illustrate current educational trends
•Create a collaboration of pragmatic ideas and effective classroom
practices
•Private - BHMS 8th grade co-teachers

3. Extending the Classroom with Web
Publishing
• Creating a Writers Workshop impacts student
learning beyond the classroom.
• With the web publishing tool @ wix.com
creating was quick and intuitive.
• Students can access the Writers Workshop
and links to resources from home.
• Visit my Writers Workshop @
http://www.wix.com/edschaaf/writers-
workshop

4. Google-ing and some…
The Moodle was an authentic learning experience
that prepared me to use a variety of web tools
quickly and productively. Some of the tools I
used in this course were:
• iGoogle
• RSS feeds
• Blogger.com
• youtube
• Wikispaces
• slideshare.net
• wix.com **This web publishing tool was the most useful**

5. Successes and Challenges
• Initially I was not familiar with a moodle, wiki,
blog, or web publishing.
• I found success with online learning through
youtube video tutorials and samples posted to
our moodle.
• Web publishing success by trial and error came
relatively easily @ wikispaces.com and wix.com.
• Overall, I reached my goals of impacting student
learning and increasing collaboration among my
peers.
